Description for Computational Characterisation of Gold Nanocluster Structures
Hardback. This book presents a detailed analysis of structural preferences in monometallic and bimetallic gold nanoclusters. It characterizes the optical properties of gold-based bimetallic nanoparticles with varying morphologies. Series: Springer Theses. Num Pages: 225 pages, 15 black & white illustrations, 84 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PNRD; PNRP; TBN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 18. Weight in Grams: 508.
In this thesis, Andrew Logsdail demonstrates that computational chemistry is a powerful tool in contemporary nanoscience, complementing experimental observations and helping guide future experiments. The aim of this particular PhD is to further our understanding of structural and compositional preferences in gold nanoparticles, as well as the compositional and chemical ordering preferences in bimetallic nanoalloys formed with other noble metals, such as palladium and platinum. Highlights include: calculations of the structural preferences and optical-response of gold nanoparticles and gold-containing nanoalloys; the design and implementation of novel numerical algorithms for the structural characterisation of gold nanoparticles from electron microscopy images; and ...

About Andrew James Logsdail
Dr. Andrew J. Logsdail studied his BSc (2003 - 2006), MRes (2006 - 2008) and PhD (2008 - 2012) in the School of Chemistry at the University of Birmingham, UK, with the latter two focused on characterising metallic nanoparticles, performed under the guidance of Professor Roy L. Johnston. In 2012 he moved to the Department of Chemistry at University College ... Read more
